Took the family on a backcountry splitboard trip to a high-country yurt. We've been in the summer, but winter certainly hit different. We did approximately 11 miles round-trip with a small wrong turn that added to the mileage.

It was pretty brutal, honestly. So incredibly proud of my kids for staying tough, and not complaining. They did awesome. The approach took us nearly 6.5 hours and arrived at the yurt well after dark. The unexpected detour didn't help.

BeUTAHful views were had, and the weather was a winter sports dream, fresh snow and blue skies mixed together. Yurt was cozy and we played a lot of card games, did a puzzle and bonded as a family.

My kids enjoy Crazy 8's, Phase 10 and Uno. What card games to you enjoy? I grew up playing Canasta with my grandparents and threw Spades in college, haven't taught them either yet....
